DODOMA, Oct. 23 -- THE Tanzanian government has directed all institutions responsible for collecting non-tax revenue to strengthen their collection, management and monitoring systems to ensure that every shilling due is remitted through official government systems.

The move aims to support the financing of social services and development projects.

The directive was issued in Dodoma by the Deputy Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Finance, Elijah Mwandumbya, while opening a technical meeting involving government entities responsible for non-tax revenue collection. The meeting aimed to review revenue collection reports, discuss challenges and develop recommendations to improve the management of government revenue.
